PACKAGE ARRIVES 2:30.
THEN I LOGGED IN AND ACKNOWLEDGED RECEIVING THE PACKAGE
UNPACKED THE BOX - JANICE MADE ME A BEAUTIFUL DISH RAG. IT REMINDS ME OF SHERBERT! SHE ALSO SENT ME SOME TEA BAGS AND SENT MY KITTY SOME NEW TOYS! THERE IS ALSO A CUTE CD OF ANIMAL STORIES BY JAMES HERRIOT'S TO SHARE WITH MY GRANDKIDS! ONLY HAD A MINUTE TO CHECK IT OUT BECAUSE I NEEDED TO GET KNITTING!
I QUICKLY MADE A COPY OF THE PATTERN AND DIRECTIONS THEN PUT THE ORIGINALS BACK IN THE BOX. I PUT IN THE GOODIES I HAD COLLECTED AND A NEW SKEIN OF YARN. THEN I SAT DOWN TO KNIT AT 2:40. BOY! DID MY AFTERNOON FLY!
I FINISHED AT 5:30. DECIDED TO CHANGE THE YARN I WAS SENDING TO THE NEXT KNITTER. THE ONE I PUT IN THE BOX WAS FANTASY NATURALE AND NEEDS TO BE ROLLED OR WOUND AND I KNEW THE CHERYL DIDN'T NEED THAT HEADACHE! I NEVER THOUGHT TO WIND IT AHEAD OF TIME. SO, I SWITCHED THE YARN THEN LOGGED IN TAGGED CHERYL AND TRIED TO PRINT A LABEL. UGH! 4 TRIES AND NO LABEL. SO I HAND PRINTED ONE AND TAPED IT TO THE BOX WHILE MY DAUGHTER GOT THE CAR.
WE HAD TO DRIVE CROSS TOWN - NOT AN EASY THING TO DO AT THAT TIME OF DAY! WE HAD 20 MINUTES TO GET THERE. WE PASSED 2 POLICE CARS SITTING LOOKING FOR SPEEDERS/DUI FOR THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND.
GOT TO THE POST OFFICE JUST IN THE KNICK OF TIME! POSTMARKED AT 5:52. WE HAD 8 MINUTES TO SPARE!
WHEN WE GOT BACK HOME MY BOYFRIEND SAID THE LABEL PRINTED 5 MINUTES AFTER WE LEFT!
I LOGGED IN AGAIN AND ENTERED THE TRACKING NUMBER AND DATE!
I AM FINISHED! YOUR TURN NOW CHERYL - GOOD LUCK!
I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO GET A PICTURE OF THE BOX ALL READY TO GO - WAS TRYING TO PRINT LABEL BUT DID TAKE A QUICK PICTURE OF THE DISH RAG. I LOVE THE COLORS IN THE YARN JANICE SENT ME! I REALLY LIKE THE PATTERN WE RECEIVED - WILL PROBABLY DO IT AGAIN BUT A LOT SLOWER!
GO DISH RAG DIVAS!
